I agree, as of right now. Palin’s entry could change my mind. A Cruz/Palin ticket would be awesome.

You know, I kinda don't want Palin on-ticket — some of her supporters are too close to a "cult of personality" for my taste (and cult of personality is one reason I disliked Obama from the outset).

I think that she would bring much support from the Evangelical crowd- but she probably will still have high negatives, from all the past slanders and libels.

I don't know what Cruz would get by picking Palin for VP. Would that energize the base appreciably more than "just" Cruz with some other candidate.

Personally I like Cruz-Martinez, just so that, when speaking with liberals, I could say the ticket with the thickest, most affected, Spanish accent imaginable, trilling the R's, triple-U sound in Cruz, etc.

I’m a giant Palin supporter, but I don’t think she’d play well on a Cruz ticket. His running mate should be someone from north of the Mason-Dixon line who has more of a mild image. I could see running Paul Ryan for VP again...

Even better would be a conservative woman, but other than Palin none come to mind offhand.

I do not agree.

We need both of them on our ticket. Either Palin / Cruz, or Cruz / Palin.

Palin is our safety valve, against what may otherwise turn into a landslide of “Cruz has birth issues”.

I don’t believe he does, but unlike Obama the media will rush to question Cruz.

Palin is a safety valve to that.

Nominate the two of them, together.
